(I'm assuming you mean Tomcat 4.1.12)
In all 4.1.x versions, tag pooling is turned on by default, so if your
tags are not written correctly according to the spec (which is a common
problem) some problems can arise when using tag pooling that don't
happen when tag pooling is disabled. This is particularly true if
you're assuming that the release method will be called on your tag
between invocations; it will not.
You can try disabling pooling by going into $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml,
finding the definition of the jsp servlet, and setting the
"enablePooling" init parameter to "false".
If this solves your problems, you could just leave pooling off, but you
should seriously consider revising your tags so that they implement the
Tag lifecycle correctly.
You can find more details in the javadocs for
javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/T
ag.html
or the Jakarta Taglib Developer Guidelines (which clarify the problems
much better than the javadocs, IMO):
